President Obama's total failure of leadership in the fight against the Ebola pandemic that threatens to kill billions of people in the coming months and years has reached the point where the very survival of much of mankind depends on his immediate removal from office. As recently as his Saturday weekly radio address, the President lied to the American people, claiming that "Ebola is actually a difficult disease to catch. It's not transmitted through the air like the flu. You cannot get it from just riding on a plane or a bus. The only way that a person can contract the disease is by coming into direct contact with the bodily fluids of somebody who is already showing symptoms."

Contrast these lies to the warnings delivered by General Martin Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Gen. John F. Kelly, the head of the Southern Command, who explicitly warned about the possibility of airborne spread and warned that unless the Ebola virus is contained in West Africa, it will soon spread to the Caribbean, South and Central America, and then into the United States.

If President Obama were not a pawn of the genocidal British Empire forces who willfully promote a mass population reduction through—in the words of Bertrand Russell—a "Black Death once every generation," the United States would have taken the lead, in partnership with Russia, China, India, and some leading European nations, in a massive military-scientific mobilization to kill the disease. By appointing political hack (and former Al Gore chief of staff) Ron Klain as the new "Ebola Czar," Obama once again made clear that he is more interested in installing a "spin doctor" than a serious military or public health professional to lead a global effort. Right now, the United States government does not even have a Surgeon General. President Obama could have appointed his Surgeon General nominee to take up the post of Ebola Czar. He could have appointed a former Chairman of the JCS like Colin Powell. In short, his approach is nothing short of a potential death sentence to millions of Americans if the Ebola pandemic is not beaten now.

Ebola: The 'Terrorism of Poverty'

Upon returning from an Ebola fact-finding tour of Liberia, Dr. Paul Farmer told the Washington Post on Oct. 6, "This isn't a natural disaster, this is the terrorism of povery." Farmer in the co-founder of Partners in Health (PIH), a Harvard professor of Public Health, and best known for his decades of work in Haiti. In mid-September, he and a few of his medical staff ventured deep into the bush area in Liberia to visit a provincial hospital which PIH is working with. They found the pharmacy shelves virtually bare and the hospital nearly empty as people, fearful of Ebola, had gone home. Farmer, like Dr. Osterholm, insists that the disease transmission must be stopped at its epicenters in West Africa. But to do that, "infection control [must be linked] to improved clinical care."

A few of their initial findings reveal the long-imposed effects of Kissinger's NSSM-200. "Even before the current crisis killed many of Liberia's health professionals, there were fewer than fifty doctors working in the public health system in a country of more than four million people... That's one physician per 100,000 population, compared to 240 in the U.S. or 670 in Cuba. Properly equipped hospitals are even scarcer than staff... Also scarce is personal protective equipment: gowns, gloves, masks, face shields etc." Farmer reported that as of October 1, "a third of all Ebola cases ever documented were registered in September 2014." A key conclusion he reached is that "weak health systems, not unprecedented virulence or a previously unknown mode of transmission, are to blame for Ebola's rapid spread." Farmer's essay with these findings was published in the London Review of Books in early October.

"The Ebola crisis is a reflection of long-standing and growing inequalities of access to basic health care," PIH's fact sheet states. "It would be scandalous to let this crisis escalate further when we have the knowledge, tools, and resources to stop it," Farmer and his co-founder Dr. Jim Yong Kim wrote in a recent op-ed. Farmer's four "S's" to quell epidemics are: stuff, staff, space, and systems. In his essay upon his return from Liberia, Farmer elaborated on the four S's needed in West Africa now. There must be "uninterrupted supplies" of personal protective equipment, rehydration fluids and salts, medications, food, fuel, lab equipment, batteries etc., delivered to these countries. Second, staff is essential; nurses, doctors, and logisticians etc., along with training, and adequate pay must be guaranteed. Third is space, i.e., "rebuilding of primary care" facilities. "The outbreak has put an enormous strain on already weak health systems," as people are going untreated for basic illnesses, thereby further weakening their health. Fourth, a system of prevention of the spread involving proper care for quarantined patients, coordination of information, research, logistics, and training.

As Dr. Michael Osterholm and other public health and infectious disease specialists have warned repeatedly for months, a genuine military-style mobilization is needed to defeat the Ebola epidemic in West Africa before it spreads beyond control. In an appearance on Fox TV on Sunday morning, Dr. Osterholm called for a military surge on the scale of the Berlin Airlift to get medical supplies, personnel, and other vital sanitation and nutrition into the hot zone.

Osterholm Advocates Full Military Mobilization to Fight Ebola

While members of Congress are arguing over a travel ban for countries where Ebola is raging out of control, Dr. Michael Osterholm, during an appearance on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace, Oct. 19, called for a full military mobilization to meet the disease threat in Africa, instead. "What I'm really concerned about is what happens in Africa," Osterholm said before the topic of a military mobilization even came up, "because as long as that infectious disease forest fire is burning, those embers are going to keep running around the world regardless of whether we close the borders or not."

Rep. Tim Murphy (R-Penna.), a key member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, in arguing for a travel ban, noted that the U.S. military flew hundreds of thousands of tons of supplies into Berlin during the Berlin Airlift in 1948-49, despite the ground travel ban imposed by the Soviet Union.

"I agree with you on the Berlin Airlift but that was all military," [emphasis added] Osterholm said. "If you're prepared today to give us hundreds of military planes that will fly in and out at will when we need them to move not only material but also people, then maybe I'll reconsider [the travel ban, which Osterholm opposes], but I don't see anybody in Congress telling us we're going to get hundreds of military planes." Murphy acknowledged that the ability of the U.S. military to move goods and supplies is "pretty massive," but he said he wants to focus as much on keeping the disease out of the U.S. as he does on dealing with it in Africa.

The U.S. Air Force's airlift fleet is, indeed, considerable, currently consisting of 222 C-17 Globemaster III's, about 50 C-5 Galaxy's and approximately 350 C-130 Hercules. The C-17 has a cargo capacity of up to 160,000 pounds, the C-5 of up to 270,000 lbs and the C-130 of 45,000 lbs. Mobilizing this fleet, as Osterholm suggests, would require a presidential order, as the Pentagon would say that these aircraft are already supporting missions all over the globe, but it could be done were the Ebola crisis to be treated as the existential crisis that it is.

The United States alone has hundreds of heavy cargo planes under the U.S. Air Force and other services that could be shuttling vital supplies and personnel into Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea, where death rates among known Ebola victims is 70-90 percent in most areas. The United States, Russia, China, Japan, and several European countries have hospital ships that could be dispatched off the West African coast (all three hot zone countries are on the coast) within a week, establishing a network of emergency hospital facilities that would be quarantine facilities. So far, only a handful of U.S. troops have arrived in West Africa and few mobile hospitals have been installed. The disease vector is spreading much faster than the international response.

In the United States, while there are only four Level IV bio-hazard facilities, there are many teaching hospitals where bio-defense research is being conducted and where vaccine research is underway. All of those hospitals could be upgraded to take Ebola patients within 72 hours.

Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel issued an order on Sunday assigning military specialists to work with civilian authorities on rapid response to further cases in the United States. But so far, only 40 military personnel will be assigned to the new rapid response effort.

Long before the Ebola crisis, President Obama committed high crimes and misdemeanors that warranted his impeachment. All of those crimes—including his adament refusal to go to Congress for formal authorization for the war against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria—still stand as articles of impeachment. His blatant refusal to take the vital actions against Ebola make his removal an existential issue for all Americans and all of mankind.
